Let me tell you we rotated the months to set up what challenges we would do during the year and February was my month, well I have to admit even though I picked the below picture as the inspiration this week it was so hard for me to do a winter card! We have had wonderful weather all week and today was no different Good luck I hope this inspires you to create!
